He's 36 and has a degenerative back issue, so this may be his final season.

This isn't my recent pessimism talking, but I do think the Rangers made a mistake not trading Gallo when they could. He could still wind up a serious badass, but I'm seeing less and less signs of that happening. While I don't crunch the numbers like that article does, I've certainly been dreading the end of Darvish's contract. Feels like the end of the road for a lot of the team.

Maddon got way too cute in the 8th inning, that's why he had to leave Montgomery out to wear it. only went to Rondon for one batter? really?

Pulling the best defensive RF in baseball with a lead because your closer is up 4th the next inning doesn't seem smart either.

Well he does have more hits than everyone except Ichiro so clearly his analysis is well thought out but not as good as Ichiro's.

I honestly hope the Giants have to endure 100 years without a WS win someday. You guys don't know how easy/nice you actually have it.
